GORMAN-RUPP EXPANDS IN EUROPE FLOWSERVE OPENS US$8.5MN PLANT IN INDIA
Flowserve Corp has opened a new pump manufacturing facility in Coimbatore, India. The state-of-the-art facility will support the company's existing Indian operations and provide pump products for the oil and gas, power and chemical industries.
The 100 000 sq ft pump facility was built on 14 acres at an investment of approximately US$8.5 million. The new facility will nearly double Flowserve's production capabilities for single stage, multi-stage, barrel and vertical engineered and industrial pumps. The 200-person management and engineering staff at the operation will also provide total pumping solution services and support to the region.
A key element in Flowserve's global strategy, the facility is located in Coimbatore and will provide a platform for continued growth in India and the region, with the manufacturing of industrial and engineered pumps for the domestic and export markets.
"Expanding our footprint in the Asia-Pacific region continues to be a key part of Flowserve's growth strategy," said Flowserve CEO Lewis Kling. "We are very excited about this milestone and the expansion of our existing operations within India.
